Why Covid 19 is great!

The vast majority of people who are at risk for covid 19 are the elderly and those were underlying serious health issues.
This accounts for 1-2 percent of the world population that will perish from this though stats are being inflated or underdone based on perspective and agenda.
First let me say that I do feel that we should care for the sick and the elderly and do all we can to bring them comfort, safety and do all we can to increase their health and lifespan......but!
Why are the healthy and the young required to destroy their businesses, file for unemployment, lock them selves in their homes and sacrifice all that is dear to them for an indefinite, undetermined amount of time?
There are ways we can all make efforts to protect these vulnerable people without being forced to shut down our economy and alter our lives to these unreasonable levels.
Why does the burden not fall on the sick and elderly and fall on all of society in this collectivist authoritarian manner?
If the elderly and sick wish to extended their life spans they should purchase medical grade papr's and respirators and wear them all the time.
With this level of shutdown and drastic measures I do not think it is unreasonable to request that the sick and elderly wear medical grade bio hazmat suits.
With all of the subsidies the government has doled out we could have afforded to distribute this kind of material to the at risk demographics of America.
They can self quarantine.
If an individual feels they are at risk and death terrifies them to this extreme level then why not move yourself into hermitage?
Move off into remote areas and lock your doors.
Wear masks and gloves if it makes you feel better and cut off connection with your friends, community and family.
If this is what you want then by all means do it.
This is America and you are welcome to freedom to live any way you want.
But why is your life so damn important?
If you have serious underlying health issues then lets address the majority of people suffering from those issues.
Most people who are at risk are overweight and many are morbidly obese.
Many are suffering from diabetic issues brought on from their own poor diets and habits.
many are habitual smokers who have continued to destroy their lungs throughout the years.
Others are drug addicts and people who have destroyed their health with alcoholism.
These are people who never exercise and eat foods they should not eat.
These are people who have diets composed primarily of junk food.
These are people who invest their money into vice rather than health and the future.
These are people who would most likely survive this virus without a hitch if they actually gave a damn about their lives but now why is it this travesty if they are to die from this virus?
These are people for whom the sands of time are running extremely low as it is and now I am expected to stop the world for people who are shortening their life span daily from all fault of their own?
Why is it so terrible that instead of meeting their end 1-10 years from now they bite the dust a few months from now?
This virus should motivate this demographic and all of us as a whole to take care of our health.
This should motivate us to live better lives and be strong and get stronger or else.
This virus should push us all to be the best we can be and take personal responsibility for our lives and build physical and mental strength.
In the case of the elderly of course they should be protected and cared for but nursing homes are nests of covid 19.
I understand that there are people who have no other option than a nursing home type facility when their minds and health fail but far too many people are leaving their families in these facilities when it is not necessary.
Find safe quarters for your elderly family members and if they are so frail that something like covid 19 can kill them then they should be living out their final days in quarantine as it is.
But can we ask ourselves why is it so important for the elderly and for those of us who are young why is it so important to live a lifespan that surpasses 75?
I know 70 something year olds and 80 something year olds who live very productive lives and I am sure there are people who are near centurion age that are productive and living great lives but they are not the norm.
A large number of people being sustained with modern technology and medicine are not living productive or healthy lives when they surpass 80 years old.
a great deal are lonely, suffering and in constant pain mentally and physically.
Why is it so imperative that they live another 1-10 years?
The reason as far as I can tell is constant fear of death.
I have faced down death more than once in my life.
I like most anyone have a fear of death and the will to survive but I accept that I will at some point die.
I have been living the most productive and full life I can live and have on various occasions volunteered to work in operate in extremely dangerous areas.
I worked in Northern Iraq in regions where ISIS was active only 9-10 kilometers in any given direction.
I worked with old and young men who were fighting to keep ISIS away from their communities and accepted that they very well could die at any moment.
Many I met had been shot and others were missing toes from frost bite from long patrols in the snowy mountains of Kurdistan.
They accepted that death could reach them at any time. Not to mention TB and various diseases abound in the region.
I accepted that I could lose my life but that there were things greater than just me.
I know soldiers from the USA and various regions of Africa who have faced death daily and few want to die but all accept it as a fate that we all must meet.
But in the USA it seems the average American is paralyzed by it.
I believe all life has worth and value but cowardice and living a life of terror is no existence that I want to take part in.
We should all take measures to protect ourselves and all other people.
If you have a cold wearing a mask is a great idea.
The Japanese have been practicing that for ages and it is a good custom but attacking people who are healthy for not wearing your costume of conformity and fear is not something I wish to be apart of.
Take your shoes off before you enter a home, wash your hands and use hand sanitizer if you want but for the love of god lets end the hysteria.
I lived in Haiti surrounded by malaria, dengue and I myself suffered a horrible bought of typhoid.
I did not lock myself away from the world while living in Haiti nor did the rest of the populace.
If our ancestors hid themselves away in fear then we would have never reached any accomplishment as a race, in fact we would have surely perished due to mass cowardice.
Enough is enough time to get back to living and if you don't want to then die.
Be strong, get stronger because the world is a tough place.
America and the west has been coddled too long.
Time to toughen up or else you wont make it.
We have now seen the true cowardice of the common man in the west and its time we see cowards build strength or perish.
We can and should continue to protect all people but we need to stop cultivating weakness and cowardice.
This is an opportunity to build strength and courage and if you refuse to then go hide and self quarantine from the world.
I however refuse to live in a state of hysteria.
